Generics is something I can't live without, to be honest. But I don't like C++'s implementation of generics. The error messages they generate and the whole SFINAE business make for a horrible programmer experience. Rust has the best implementation that I know of currently. Inline assembly sure is useful.

Anyway, thanks for the extensive answer. I think I understand your point of view better now.
